1、Seeing Red Means Danger AheadThe colｏｒred often means danger ａｎｄ　by paying attention, accidents can be prevented. In the future, the colｏｒred also may help prevent danger at construction sites. Thanks to new work by engineers, bridge supports ｏｒother kinds of materials, could one day contain a colｏｒ- changing material. It will turn red before a structure collapses ｏｒfalls apart.The secret behind the colｏｒ- changing material is a particular type of molecule (分子). A molecule is aｇｒｏｕｐof atoms (原子) held together by chemical bonds. Molecules come in all shapes ａｎｄ　sizes ａｎｄ　make up everything you can see, touch ｏｒfeel. How a molecule behaves depends on _____ kinds of atoms it contains ａｎｄ　how they\'re held together.When a polymer (聚合物) containing a colｏｒ- changing molecule called a mechanophore (机械响应性聚合物) is about to break, it produces a color. When a polymer with mechanophore molecules becomes "injured" ｏｒweak, one of the mechanophore bonds breaks ａｎｄ　the material turns red. "It\'s a really simple detection method," says Nancy Sottos, one of the scientists who worked on the project. Sottos ａｎｄ　her team tested the colｏｒ- changing polymers in their lab. The test results proved encouraging.There is a way to get rid of the red colｏｒlight. When a bright light is shone on the mechanophore, the broken bond is fixed ａｎｄ　the red colｏｒdisappears. Thus "self - healing" may be a problem fｏｒengineers. They need to use the colｏｒ- changer in big construction projects that will be outside, under sunlight. ａｎｄ　sunlight will make the mechanophore\'s warning system useless.Sottos ａｎｄ　her fellow scientists still have a lot of work to do before the colｏｒ- changing molecules can be used outside the lab.【单选题】

A.why

B.how

C.what

D.where

正确答案:C

答案解析:本题难度不大，考查宾语从句引导词what的用法，本题可以先看选项，得到信息提示，很明显，答案是C。

2、WaterThe second most important constituent (构成成份) of the biosphere (生物圈) is liquid water. This can only exist in a very narrow range of temperatures, since water freezes at 0℃ ａｎｄ　boils at 100℃. Life as we know it would only be possible on the surface of a planet which had temperatures somewhere within this narrow range.The earth\'s supply of water probably remains fairly constant in quantity. The total quantity of water is not known very accurately, but it is about enough to cover the surface of the globe to a depth of about two ａｎｄ　three - quarter kilometers. Most of it is in the form of the salt water of the oceans about 97 percent. The rest is fresh, but three -quarters of this is in the form of ice at the Poles ａｎｄ　on mountains, ａｎｄ　cannot be used by living systems until melted. Of the remaining fraction, which is somewhat less than one percent of the whole, there is 10 -20 times as much stored underground water as there is actually on the surface. There is also a tiny, but extremely important fraction of the water supply which is present as water vapour in the atmosphere.Water vapour in the atmosphere is the channel through which the whole water circulation (循环) of the biosphere has to pass. Water evaporated (蒸发) from the surface of the oceans, from lakes ａｎｄ　rivers ａｎｄ　from moist (潮湿的) earth is added to it. From it the water comes out again as rain ｏｒsnow, falling on either the sea ｏｒthe land. There is, as might be expected, a more intensive evaporation per unit area over the sea ａｎｄ　oceans than over the land, but there is more rainfall over the lａｎｄ　than over the oceans ａｎｄ　the balance is restored by the runoff from the lａｎｄ　in the form of rivers.The word "fraction" in the second paragraph means ______.【单选题】

A.a very small amount

B.a large area

C.an important system

D.a majｏｒsource of information

正确答案:A

答案解析:本题难度不大，文章第二段第四句谈到剩余部分大约小于1%，可以判断fraction意思是指“很少一部分”，此外也可迅速查词典，确定答案，答案是A。

3、The carCars are an important part of life in the United States. Without a car most people feel that they are poor. ａｎｄ　even if a person is poｏｒhe doesn\'t feel really poｏｒwhen he has a car. Henry Ford was the man who first started making cars in large numbers. He probably didn\'t know how much the car was going to affect American culture. The car made the United Stated a nation on wheels. ａｎｄ　it helped make the United States what it is today. There are three main reasons why the car becomes so popular in the United States. First of all, the country is a huge one ａｎｄ　Americans like to move around in it. The car provides the most comfortable ａｎｄ　cheapest form of transportation. With a car people can go anylace without spending a lot of money. The second reason cars are popular is the fact that the United States never really developed an efficient ａｎｄ　inexpensive form of public transportation. Long-distance trains have never been as common in the country as they are in other parts of the world. Nowadays there is a good system of air-service provided by planes. But it is too expensive to be used frequently. The third reason is the most important one, though. The American spirit of independence is what really made cars popular. Americans don\'t like to wait fｏｒa bus, ｏｒa train ｏｒeven a plane. They don\'t like to have to follow an exact schedule. A car gives them the freedom to schedule their own time. ａｎｄ　this is the freedom that Americans want most to have. The gas shortage has caused a big problem fｏｒAmericans. But the answer will not be a bigger system of public transportation. The real solution will have to be a new kind of car, one that does not use so much gas. With a car people can go ____ easily. 【单选题】

A.anywhere

B.to anyplace

C.to anywhere

D.any place

正确答案:A

答案解析:第3段末尾“With a car people call go anyplace without spending a lot of money”，anyplace连在一起写等于anywhere，都是副词，可以直接与动词连用，但是不与介词to连用，所以B、C是错误选项。而分开写的any place是名词词组，需要与to连用。所以A是正确答案。

4、The Threat to KiribatiThe people of Kiribati are afraid that one day in the not-too-distant future, their country will disappear from the face of the earth-literally. Several times this year, the Pacific islａｎｄ　nation has been flooded by a sudden high tide. These tides, which swept across the islａｎｄ　ａｎｄ　destroyed houses, came when there was neither wind nｏｒrain. "This never happened before," say the older citizens of Kiribati.What is causing these mysterious high tides? The answer may well be global warming. When fuels like oil ａｎｄ　coal are being burned, pollutants (污染物) are released. These pollutants trap heat in the earth\'s atmosphere. Warmer temperatures cause water to expａｎｄ　ａｎｄ　also create more water by melting glaciers (冰川) ａｎｄ　polar (极地的) ice caps.If the trend continues, scientists say, many countries will suffer, Bangladesh, fｏｒexample, might lose one-fifth of its land. The coral (珊瑚) islａｎｄ　nations of the Pacific, like Kiribati ａｎｄ　the Marshall Islands, however, would face an even worse fate-they would be swallowed by the sea. The loss of these coral islands would be everyone\'s loss. Coral formations are home to more species than any other place on earth.The people of these nations feel frustrated. The sea, on which their economies have always been based, is suddenly threatening their existence. They don\'t have the money fｏｒexpensive technological solutions like seawalls. ａｎｄ　they have no control over the pollutants, which are being released mainly by activities in large industrialized countries. All they can do is to hope that industrialized countries will take steps to reduce pollution.Scientists are not sure how serious the effects of global warming will be.【单选题】

A.Right

B.Wrong

C.Not mentioned

正确答案:B

答案解析:题干大意：科学家不确定全球变暖将产生多么严重的后果。文章第三段提到：If the trend continues, scientists say, many countries will suffer...would face an even worse fate. 如果按照这个趋势继续发展，很多国家将会遭受或者面临更严重的危机。也就是说科学家们还是看到了全球变暖的严峻性。故答案选B。

6、Greene spent a brief time at Cambridge.【单选题】

A.hard

B.good

C.short

D.long

正确答案:C

答案解析:格林在剑桥做了简短停留。本题难度不大，干扰项干扰不大，是送分题，可以确认brief和short都是“简短的”意思，答案是C。

7、A special educationVideodisc holds great promise of helping to meet the needs of American schoolchildren who have problems seeing, hearing, speaking, ｏｒsocializing. Almost eleven percent of the students aged 3-21 in this country have an impairment that affects their ability to benefit from a regular education program. Handicapped students require special education because they are often markedly different from most children in one ｏｒmore of the following ways: mentally retarded (发展迟缓的) learning-disabled, emotionally disturbed, deaf, visually handicapped, physically handicapped, ｏｒother health impairments. The education of these handicapped children is rewarding but challenging. A special education student usually needs a longer period of time to acquire information. Repetitive teaching techniques are often beneficial, ａｎｄ　indefatigable (孜孜不倦) consistency on the part of the teacher is frequently necessary. Interactive videodisc courseware has characteristics that can be capitalized upon to meet the challenges that special education poses. A videodisc program is infinitely patient. Repetition of any videodisc lesson can continue endlessly, ａｎｄ　designers can assure absolute consistency within a program. Most important, according to special educatｏｒWilliam Healey of the University of Arizona, is that videodisc "adds an extra dimension of realism fｏｒchildren who need graphic representations."Healey explained that deaf ａｎｄ　mentally retarded children especially have difficulty grasping figurative language ａｎｄ　higher-ｏｒｃｅｒlanguage concepts. He believes that fｏｒspecial education, the power of videodisc lies in the ability of the technology to visually represent language concepts normally taken fｏｒgranted by non-handicapped persons. Complex figurative language forms such as idioms ａｎｄ　metaphors come most readily to mind as being difficult fｏｒhandicapped learners. The special education mentioned in the text is mainly concerned with____. 【单选题】

A.genius students from day-care centers to colleges

B.students who are fond of computer video games

C.teachers of language in the University of Arizona

D.students who are either mentally ｏｒphysically disabled

正确答案:D

答案解析:由文章第1段“Handicapped students require special education because they are. . . ”可知，文中提及的特殊教育针对的是有智力和身体残疾的学生们，故选D。

8、If we leave now, we should miss the traffic.【单选题】

A.direct

B.stop

C.mix

D.avoid

正确答案:D

答案解析:我们现在走，应能避开交通高峰。本题考查引申意义，miss指“想念”，引申意思是“错过，避开”，和avoid“避免”是近义词，其他三项都是常用词，和答案意义差异较大，干扰性不强。

9、She can be relied on in a crisis.【单选题】

A.looked after

B.believed in

C.turned on

D.depended on

正确答案:D

答案解析:在危机时她还是可靠的。本题有一定难度，B的干扰性最大，但在确定词的精确意义后，可以发现，relied on和depended on都是“可以依靠的”意思，所以D是最佳答案。

10、What Do Dreams Tell Us?Why do we dream? Do dreams have meanings? These are questions which have troubled man fｏｒthousands of years. The oldest surviving book on the interpretation of dreams is Egyptian ａｎｄ　is nearly 4,000 years old. In ancient Greece, it was thought that people who were ill could be cured by telling their dreams. They would relate their dreams to their doctors who would tell them what they meant ａｎｄ　then give them medicine to make them well. The ancient Chinese believed that if a pregnant woman dreamed of a bear, she would have a son, ａｎｄ　if she dreamed of a snake, she would have a daughter. There are many stories about dreams foretelling (预言) the future.We certainly do not now believe that dreams foretell the future. Most scientists believe that dreams are based on events in our own life ａｎｄ　on our feelings. The events are usually very recent, mostly within the last two days. Our emotions, on the other hａｎｄ　our wishes, hopes ａｎｄ　fears may go back many years, even to early childhood.In a dream, events are altered. A dream may contain parts of many real-life events. Most importantly, something that cannot be shown directly may be shown indirectly. Fｏｒexample, you might dream of driving a large car. This could mean not that you want to have a larger car, but that you desire power, ａｎｄ　maybe you want to control other people. Again, you may dream that you are an actｏｒin a play. The play is about to start, but you have completely forgot your lines. This dream may seem strange because you are not interested in acting, ａｎｄ　you never want to be in a play. But the dream may mean that you have some other problem that you feel is too difficult fｏｒyou to solve.Psychologists believe that dreams may be helpful to us. Indeed, people who have been allowed to sleep in experiments, but not allowed to dream, have become anxious ａｎｄ　restless. ａｎｄ　when they are later allowed to sleep as much as they like, they dream more than ever to make us fｏｒthe lost "dream time".Paragraph 4 ______.【单选题】

A.Structure ａｎｄ　interpretation of a dream

B.Ancient views on dreams

C.Babies dream less than older children

D.Dreaming may be good fｏｒour health

E.Dreams can not foretell the future

F.Healthy people do not dream

正确答案:D

答案解析:第四段主题句为第一句：Psychologists believe that dreams may be helpful to us. 心理学家认为梦对人类是有益的。D选项Dreaming may be good fｏｒour health（做梦对我们的健康是有益的）与其意思一致，故D为正确答案。
